Sarah’s Day has divided the internet by sharing a glimpse at her five-year-old son’s preschool lunchbox.
The Aussie influencer, 31, whose real name is Sarah Stevenson, took to Instagram on Friday to show her followers what she gives her son Fox Ocean for his daily lunch.
She shared a video of herself packing an array of ‘healthy’ snacks for him to take to preschool, which included curried eggs and cucumber and carrot sticks.
The lunch also included a portion of low-sugar high-protein blueberry yoghurt, pumpkin seeds, one five seed cracker, avocado and fresh fruit.
‘This is everything he eats in a day at preschool, the only change next week is no Babybel cheese,’ she said in a voiceover, explaining that Fox no longer likes Babybels.

Fellow influencer Indy Clinton said: ‘If I served navy this he would throw mine in the bin and steal the other kids lunches, so amazing foxy eats like this!!’
While other fans added: ‘Would love to see more of these!’; ‘Love this! What curry powder do you use? Trying to find a good one!’;

‘I have shared quite a bit of our food journey as a family and how I have encouraged my kids to not only eat, but truly ENJOY healthy foods. All of this has begun from the day that I introduce solids through baby led weaning.
‘I acknowledge and respect my son’s different taste preferences, foods they dislike and cuisines they gravitate towards and have always maintained an open conversation about what whole, healthy foods do for our body and why we are so blessed to eat such nourishing foods!
‘Checkout my cookbook (link in bio) for over 130 of my healthy recipes, including many of my kids faves!’
As well as her eldest child Fox, Sarah also shares another son, two-year-old Malakai Koa, with her husband Kurt Tilse.

The couple are also preparing to welcome their third child together in October after Sarah announced her pregnancy at the start of May.
Elsewhere, the millionaire influencer recently came under fire from working mothers for comments she made about being a primary school teacher.
The lifestyle vlogger took to Instagram last week to thank her fans for all their support which allows her to ‘be what I’ve always wanted – a stay at home mum’.
She said that without her platform, she ‘would have probably been a primary school teacher and forced to put my kids in daycare’, sparking backlash among working mothers who brutally slammed Sarah on Reddit.
The YouTube star said in her lengthy post: ‘Since having two kids, I’ve gotten so much better at balancing life and work, saying no to opportunities and allowing myself time to just enjoy being a mum.’

She went on to ‘humble brag’ about being able to set her family up ‘with businesses, passive income streams and systems to be able to have work life balance’.
‘I just want to thank you for supporting me, my channel and my projects. Without you I would have probably been a primary teacher and forced to put my kids in daycare as soon as my maternity leave was up,’ she added.
Sarah finished her message to fans by saying she was so ‘lucky’ to be able to pursue her dream of being a ‘stay at home mum’.
Some followers of the millionaire influencer took offence to the post, sharing it to Reddit where they slammed Sarah in a brutal spray for her out of touch comments.

They wrote: ‘This makes me more angry?’; ‘This. This is what bothers me about this post. Demonising putting kids in childcare’;
‘The way she makes being a primary teacher with kids in daycare sound like some kind of failure! Ugh’;
‘Well thank god HER kids don’t have to go to daycare unlike the rest of us peasants.’
Despite the torrent of online hate, the Outspoken podcast pointed out that it likely wasn’t the influencer’s intention to ‘be offensive to school teachers’.
Hosts Amy, Sophie and Kate Taeuber said they believed Sarah ‘centered her own experience’ in her message without realising how it might be perceived.

‘For a bit of background, in her early days of YouTube, she was starting to be a primary school teacher and she ended up dropping out of uni to pursue her influencer career,’ they said.
‘So for her, being a teacher and not following her dream would have been a step back for her. She was trying to centre herself in it, but I think she was unaware of how it came across to people who are primary school teachers.’
Sarah pursued a full-time career as an influencer in the early 2010s and has since shot to fame fame as a lifestyle and fitness vlogger.
Daily Mail Australia reached out to Sarah for comment at the time.
